    We reserved a table for four for Mother’s Day. Our waiter Doug was super personable and gave great recommendations. He even went out of his way to make my nephew have a great experience. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food was delicious, the music was live and the atmosphere was awesome. I would definitely recommend. The valet parking was $10, when validated by the host. Otherwise it’s $25.

    Danny was amazing… recommended 3 fabulous dishes, we had a great time for Mother’s Day and Teacher Appreciation Week. Ash and the other restaurants were offering a nice discount for Teacher Appreciation Week. We will definitely be back for the ribeye, oysters, chicken cutlet and caramel namelaka. We also had the Valencia cocktail and bartender’s choice which was almost like an Arnold Palmer old fashioned. 10/10 experience thank you so much!

    I celebrated my birthday at Predalina last night, and I have to give the biggest shoutout to my waitress, Daniella. She went above and beyond from the moment I sat down and truly made me feel like royalty all evening long. Her wine recommendations were absolutely perfect, she checked on me consistently without ever being overwhelming, and her small talk was so genuine and warm that it felt like I was being celebrated by a friend. She even took my birthday photos and made sure every moment felt special. This was hands down some of the best customer service I’ve experienced in a very long time. In a world where great hospitality can be rare, Daniella reminded me that kindness is currency, and she paid it like the rent was due. Thank you for making my birthday dinner unforgettable. Predalina is lucky to have her.
